And in one of the spoilers, one contestant apparently has as many as ten $1,000,000 cases on his board!

It sounds like NBC/Endemol is quite desperate to see a jackpot winner here in the USA!

The big Q is, will it be won this time around?

Ten?!?

They are quite clearly playing this out until someone wins it.

Eventually, they're going to have 25 million-dollar cases avaialble, with only the penny remaining where it is. Even then, the player still won't win the million dollars. Trust me, this gimmick is being way overdone. DoND UK wasn't desperate for a jackpot win. A contestant won the top prize on that show the hard - and right - way. Imagine what would have happened if they started a Quarter-Million Pound Mission.

Hey, I wonder what happens when a contestant is left with 2 million-dollar cases as their final two. Do they get an offer of $1,000,001 or something?

Did you not see Lauras final offer? OF COURSE They wanted her to win it they had to give her that to urge her on to get a win.
Admittably not as extreme as what the USA is trying to do lol.

You wanna see it won the hard way watch the first Aussie winner lol he turns down $102,000s practically instantly on a $200,000 $5 final two lol, and wins the biggie.

That is absolutely disgusting!! 10 $1M cases is the most outrageous thing I have ever heard. It won't be a real $1M win, and I am sure the contestant is happy but I don't want to see someone win it by gambling on a double $1m finish!! I wanna see someone ND $500k.

Okay, so who wants to predict how long it will take before this show gets cancelled?

I call five months, and then the syndicated version to be left alone, lasting three seasons.

Sounds logical. All right, so the over-under is 5 months. Place your bets now.

With regards to the syndie version, I think it will fare much better than the network version, even though it's being played for a quarter of the stakes. It might be close to the UK version because it's being played in a shorter amount of time, has 22 cases held by future contestants, and so on. However, they way that End 'Em All is treating the network version of DoND, it won't last very much longer.

I guess the million dollar mission will occupy the right side of the board alone!

Yeah, you're probably right, Aramid. You'll probably see as many as 13 MDCs, since each side of the game board has 13 amounts. And Aaron, it will take many 10 or 20 thousand e-mails for NBC to get the message, or maybe even more than that. Either that, or they'll get the message by looking at the ratings. They've been suprisingly high thus far, though.
